| contents | B. F. Skinner’s evolving views of punishment: I. 1930-1940 Bruna Colombo dos Santos Marcus Bentes de Carvalho Neto Psicología Skinner history Punishment behavior analysis Punishment is a controversial topic. In the theoretical field, there are two definitions of punishment that correspond to two theories: one that considers punishment as asymmetric to reinforcement and the other that considers it symmetric. One of authors that defended an asymmetric view was B. F. Skinner. Citations of Skinner’s position on punishment most often rely on what he described in Science and Human Behavior. The objective of this review was to present the historical development of the concept of punishment in B. F. Skinner’s work, in the early years of his career, from the 1930s. We consider the definition, explanatory mechanisms, concepts related to punishment and the notion of symmetry and asymmetry. The term used in the 1930s to refer to punishment was negative reinforcement/conditioning. Skinner talked about punishment for the first time in 1935, considering it a process that decreased operant strength. In 1938, he began questioning this punishment effect, culminating in a change in definition in the latter year. The possible reasons for this change were the development of the concept of reserve and Konorski and Miller’s (1937) criticisms. 2019 otro 0185-4534 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=59367995001 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/593/59367995001/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/593/59367995001/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/593/59367995001/59367995001.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/593/59367995001/movil https://doi.org/10.5514/rmac.v45.i2.75561 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=593 Revista Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta Revista Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta (México) Num.2 Vol.45 |
